Mr Clay's bill fortlio distribution uflbo pro-ceeils of tlio Public Lands nmong the several States in the ratio of their population for a limited term of years, with fifteen per cent, additional to the States in which the lauds lay, was refer red, on its second reading in tho Senate, to the Committee on Public Lands. We have now boforo us a pamphlet copy of an able Report mado by .Mr. Ewi.no, as Chairman of that Committee, on the 27lli nil., on reporting back the bill. In this report the principles of the bill and policy of the measure are ably sustained. The constitutional question how far Congress lias power thus to dispose of the proceeds of the Public Lands, inidor the grants by which the greater portion of them wore ceded to the Unit ed States, separate from tho general revenue of the country in tho mass, has been the chief difficulty which has surrounded the subject. On this branch ol the subject the Report is luminous, and we extract that portion in which tho constitutional question is handled, asfollows: Tho question of constitutional power has occupied the careful and sedulous altcntion of the committee; and tbey here present to the Senate the course of reasoning on that subject which they consider sound and just, and which has led them to the conclusion that Cungruss possesses the power to distribute tho proceeds of the public lands according to the principles of this bill, At the time tho deed of cession from Virginia was mado and accepted, tho Union was held together by the articles of confederation of 1778, which in its 8th article provides," that all charges of war and other expenses that shall be iiicur- Tod for the common defence or general welfare, and allowed by the United States in Congress assembled, shall be do frayed out of Iho common treasury, which shall bo supplied by the several States." The mode of determining the proportion which each of the States shall bear of the public charges, is particularly pointed out, and it is there provided that " the taxes for paying that proportion shall be laid and levied by the authority and direction of tho several States." To this state of things, existing at tho time of the delivery of the Virginia deed of cession, its provisions must ncccssarilr apply. It was to a confederacy of independent States, who kept up a common treasury out of contributions from each of its several members, according to a determinate regulation, that this deed was made, and after making certain reservations, specially set furth, it declares tho trust in tho following distinct and unequivocal terms: "That all the lands within the territory so ceded to tho United States, and not reserved for or appropriated to any of the before-mentioned purposes, or disposed of in bounties to the ofliccrs and soldiers of the American army, shall be considered as a common fund for tho use and benefit of such of tho United States as have become or shall become, mem bers of tho confederation, Virginia inclusive, according to their usual respective proportions in the general chargo and expenditures, and ball be faithfully and bona fldo disposed of for that purpose, and for no other use or purpose whatsoever." If, then, we had still continued, down to the present time, a confederation of States, bound together by tho articles of 177S, and if, as is now the case, tho public debt were discharged, the public expenses borne by rev enucs from other quarters, and tho public land pouring its millions into tho treasury, what ought Congress, as tho trustee of that common fund, to do with it! It is a trust fund, placed in the hands of Congress "for the. use and benefit nf the several States, and it is to bo disposed of " bona Jute for that purposo, " ami fur no other me or purpose whatsoever." So long as there was a public debt to be paid, this fund was well applied fur the common benefit in tho payment of that debt, as tho debt was a common charge upon all, " according to thoir usual respective proportions in the public expenditures." And so lung as it was necessary for tho support of Government, its application to that purposo was right, for the tame reason; but when this stale of things has ceased, when tho proceeds of tho public lands has the constitutional power to in alto the proposed distribution, but it is a duty enjoined on them by a contract which is recognized and adopted by the constitution. As to the land lying within the bounds of the original purchaso of Louisiana and Florida, our right so to apply it rests upon loss satisfactory grounds. Wo have no compact concerning it; no constitutional provision, or any agreement recognized by tho constitution, which expressly authorized the purchase of this additional territory, or which places the land so purchased in the same situation with that which was originally transferred to Congress by the States. Hut the right to acquire the additional territory is no longer an open question. It has been settled, and by virtue of its adjustment, we have already received into the Union two States, and the prosperity of tho whole country has been thereby creally enhanced. It would seem, that when a largo extent of territory was added to that which heretofore belonged to the United Slates, it uiisrht tu be subiccted to tho same constitu tional and Icrral principles which governed in the disposition and management of the lands which we held at the time of tho formation of the constitution. It has been so, strictly, in all things, so far as it related to jurisdiction: it would seem just and reasonable that it should be so as to soil also. Hut in every estimate which has been as yet presented of tho costs and the proceeds of the public lands, whether by tho Secretary of the Treasury or by committees of Congress, the money paid for Louisiana and Florida has been charged to this fund, and it continues to be so down to the last report of the Secretary -of the Treasury, of the Hth of December, lt!". If this bo correct, if the public lands have been mado the fund out of which this large purchase has been paid, it is in truth but a conversion of the receipts lor land into other lands, which would, as a necessary consetiucucc, follow the same law of distribution which applied to the original subject out ol which the payments were made. The fact that other great and important advantages were derived to the Union from the purchase of these two territories, docs not at all weaken the force of the argument, but leaves it in this particular instance, precisely as it would have stood if there had been a purchase of land merely out of the funds arising from the sales of lands; and by the well-known principles of equi ty, tho trust attends the fund, whensoever invested . Your committee havo not taken into consideration the question whether Congress have power, under the Constitution, to distribute a portion of the general revenue among the several States, but have chosen to rest tho measure proposed by this hill on its own special grounds. From the Cincinnati Daily Gazette, Feb. 5. r ARTIES IN OHIO. A writer under the signature! of TRUTH, in the Ohio Stato Journal, has been discussing po litical and party topics, in a series ol numbers. Number five appeared in that paper of February 2d. We make the following extract: ' Now, it is confidently believed, that these two parties constitute a majority of tho froo and independent electors of the Stale, ami that by their active co-operation upon any candidate affording tho probability of a successful competition with tho Baltimore nominee before the peo ple of the Slates, that gentleman would be dis appointed of tho electoral voles of Ohio. And yet, slrango as it would appear to an impartial and disinterested observer, this desirable union seems at this moment almost impracticable. 1 he btato Kighls parly arc a small minority ol this powerful opposition and although tbey havo furnished indubitable evidence that they act under tho highest sense of patriotism and under the solemn convictions of duty, tbey seein to bo equally contemned both by big and lory leaders. the writer docs not believe that the same sentiment exists with tho great body of citizens composing those parties, and he persuades himself that the time is at hand when the truth will be made manifest. The proscriptive spirit which certain leading and influential men cherish towards the members of this small party, was recently developed in a manner and under circumstances which would have suffused with a blush the face of Mr. Van Huron himself, when, upon a lato occasion many distinguished politicians and others, had assembled at Columbus, and intelligence was received of Presidential nomination made by the Anti-masons of Pennsylvania and the Whig members of the Virginia Legislature, a printed advertisement summoned a meeting ol 'all per suns opposed to tho llalliinorc nominations,' oVc A very worthy and talented gentleman, now a bold and prominent 'opponent' of the Haltunore nominees, hut whose mislortiino it was to ic (ormcrly associated with a decided majority of his fellow-citizens in the support of ticncral Jackson against Mr. Adams, sought to participate in tho deliberations nf the meeting. He was plainly told by gentlemen, that his opin ions and advice were not acceptable there (the writer does not profess to quote words hut senti ments cxnressedl that he was not of thorn are no longer necessary for cither of theso pur-1 thev wanted the council of friends not enemies. poses, what is it the duty nf the trustee to do with To the honor of the citizen present, however. it, according to the letter and spu n ol the uecil i be it known that this most inhospitable rcccp of trust! And what, wero it a caso between individuals, would a court of equity compel him to do! Tho answer is plain and obvious. Ho tion of a fellow-laborer, was signally rebuked by the meeting, and so sensible of tho reproof was at least one gentleman, that Ins bitter coin among those who havo one great common object in view. But if theso 'offences must come,' it is but fair that what was dune should bo stated in its different aspects, if it indeed have more than one. Of the public meeting here referred to, and of its occurrences, a good deal has been said, and verv little has been either justly or wisely said. Therefore the subjoined narration is given. the Legislature had been two weeks in ses sion, the federal uourt bad sat a week. A great number of persons wero in attendance. The party opposed to Mr. Van Uurcn had held no consultations, had mado no cll'ort to approach and understand each other. On tho contrary, a shy, suspicions, non-committal feeling prevailed. This was deemed, by some, altogether adverso to making a common cause, in a common object. Forlhe concourse then collected at Columbus to separate without any move toward co-operation, was considered unpropitious for any subsequent united elfurt. Tho intelligence that Gen. Harrison had been nominated by two conventions in Pennsylvania, bad been receiv ed. Seven orcight individuals accidentally col lected together, entered into conversation on the prospect befuro thcin. Tho result was a conclusion that some movement should he made. Those present concurred in the opinion, that the '-'2d of February convention was not a well advised proposition. Tbey also concurred in opinion, that it was the true policy of the whole opposition to concentrate upon lien. Harrison Further, they agreed that it was advisahlo to call a public meeting for the purposo of testing the dispositions entertained by their fellow-cili zens, as to what should be dune lo present nn opportunity to show hands, and interchange opinions. Thus the meeting originated thus it was called. Those who called it thought proper to prepare and submit a project of operations. This was drawn up, and three or four copies mado and circulated next day, upon the heels of the notice. It proposed sanctioning the nomination of Harrison, dispensing with the U'-iti convention, recommending meetings in each congressional district to select a candidate for elector, so as to form an cntiro ticket; and expressing an opinion favorable to nominating General Joseph Vance a candidato for Governor.Upon tho organization of the meeting, the Cist proposition submitted, was an approval of the nomination of Harrison. It was instantly followed, first by one, and again by a second amendment, both of a tendency to embarrass the single question originally proposed. Iho sec ond proposed amendment gave the go-by to Har rison altogether, then an cllort was made by myself, to prevail on the meeting to meet and openly decide upon Harrison's nomination, and reserve the question ol the i'.'d convention, not then before the meeting, to ho decided upon when it came up. The discussion, however, proceeded as if the convention, and not tho approval of Harrison's nomination, was the subject befure the meeting. In this stage, a gentleman took the lloor, lung and most notoriously a Jacksonite Without a word of indication that he was op posed to .Mr. Van Huron, he commenced i speech, the first sentence of which was in the usual terms with which Iho Jackson politicians had opposed the parly then assembled the reproach of 'lawyer caucus, 'lawyer caucus junto,' &c. Applause directly followed. Such a inodo of argument was not ono that wo had been accustomed tu hear among ourselves. I mado tho inquiry, was the gentleman opposed to Mr. Van Hurou! It was, under these circumstances, a natural inquiry fur ino to make. When answered in the affirmative, not another word was said. Ho proceeded without interruption, except by applauses, to the end of his speech; which was, throughout, an invective against those whom he had formerly opposed, ami with whom now, for tho first lime to my knowledge, ho came to actio concert, the inevitable consequence was, nn slight degree of irritation among those who called the meeting, vory freely expressed by myself, as I am accustomed to do, when I find a fair, huncst, open handed public effurt, met by evasions of direct action, and resorts to halfway doings and tcin pori.iug procrastinations. From Hie some, Tub. G. The writlcr of TRUTH asserts that ' certain leailing and influential men' uf the old Clay and Adams parties 'cherish a proscriitiee spirit towards the members' of Iho Siato Uigbls parlv. that were once Jacksouians. Tho incident ol the Columbus meeting is introduced as proof of this. I trust the explanation given yesterday will bo satisfactory tu show that the premises du not support tho conclusion. It was nut in an unkind feeling to Stato Rights men, or to the individual who addressed the meeting, that exception was taken; it was to tho mailer of the address ilsolf, after the sneaker's opposition lo Mr. Van Huren was declared. The tone of that address was a good deal identical wilh that nf Iho numbers of TRUTH, and implied throughout, the allegation, that ' certain leading and in- Jlucntial men' had views and designs uf their own, and, lor that reason, they were hostllo towards tho Slalo Rights men. This is but assumption: the fact uf adopting it is unfavorable to a cordail union with those of whom it is entertained. Still, if the conception is altogeth er, or in a great tiu-asurc, erroneous, it is wull Nails. 150 KF.G3 Juniata Nnils, assorted sizes, iust received and for sale by McF.I.VAIN, HUNTER & CO.

Hit were not necessary lo disburso iturl 'Other similar indications wero afforded on Mem, he must restoro it lo them. This, as be- this occasion, to which the writer may allude tween individuals, would he a plain case, and j hereafter. Now, what do these gentlemen ox-jour coinniilloe cannot perceive how it is varied ; pect! Do they not enst beyond themselves in when applied between Stales and Nations, If, ' their opinions,' and exhibit a want of discretion then, we had remained, as wo wore, members of 'not proper to their age! ' Do they not know the old confederation: if the constitution had not intervened, to change, in anywise, the relations of tho Statos to each other, or to the whole, it would havo been not only lie right, but the duty of Congress, pursuant to tho spirit of that deed of cession, tu have distributed among ibe several States tho proceeds of the sales of the lands contained within the bounds of that grant. The delivery and acceptance of this deed amounted to a contract, and tho above is, according to tho opinion of your committee, tho just construction of that contract. Dot tho rights and duties of tho United Stales as a contracting party, are not at all changed by the adoption of tho constitution. Tho 1st section of tho Oth article of that instrument provides " that all dobts contracted, and engage ments ontorcd into, boforo tho adoption of this constitution, shall be as valid against tho United States under this constitution as under the confederation;" so that our rights, and our duties, with regard to this trust, aro tho same precisely that they would havo been under (he old confederation. All that has been said relative lo tho deed of cession from Virginia, applios equally to the cessions from tho other States, except Georgia, whose docd hears date after the adop tion of the Federal constitution; but, with this exception, it is in tenor and spirit tho same with the deed above considered. Your committee aro hence led to tho conclu lion, that with respect lo tho proceeds of all the cation of 'leading and influential men' generally, tho individuals pointed at, as acting in the Columbus meeting, caunot bo mistaken. Henry Brush, Win. Stanbury, John C. Wright, Charles Fox, Charles Hammond, aro necessarily included. Every ono of theso gave an unqualified, an energolic support to Gen. Findlay. Every one was active in promoting union at all points oetwecn the powerful opposition, and the 'small minority of State Rights men. The editor of the Gazette received, in other States, both he-fore and after the election, no little opprobrium for his active agency in supporting the nomina tion ol ijcn. l' indlav. With what lustice, then. can it bo assumed that any of the persons named, from any consideration, are disposed to flout at me co-operation of their fellow citizens of the State Rights party, unless it can be shown thai since 1834 they havo changed their course! Let us look further: in 18U4. tho joint efforts of tho two parties succeeded in electing a majority of tho Legislature. Was the Stato Rights party overlooked or disregarded! This cannot bo maintained. A 'leading and influential' member of that party was chosen Cleric of the Senate. Moro than this: tho ' small minority' Stale Rights party had soloctcd their candidate for tho Presidency of the United States, for whom t,ey asked tho co-operation and support of the 'powerful opposition.' Every member of mc Legislature ol tho opposition parlv joined in recommending the support of tho candidate of incir otato nights friends. .Most of the ' leading and influential men' united in the recommen dation. Tho Editor of tho Gazette was active in olTecting it, suggested tho plan, nnd draft ed Hie address in which it was embodied. What moro could bo required! Wero they to blame that tho nomination was not cflcclual v second ed in other States! Tho writor of TRUTH asks: ' Now, what do theso fnnllnmnn pvnoctl Do they not ' cast beyond themselves in their opinions,' and exhibit want of discretion ' not proper to (heir ago ! ' Do they not know tnai without tho aid of Iho secodinir Jackson ians, they have no possible just expectations of carrying unio against .Mr. Van Huron! or can they think to gain their object by trampling upon ino mmo ltiglils men, and old Jackson men, as they hurry, pell mcll. on their march And is it for this, that when these men would come up to their help, they thus scorn their as sistanco, and bid them stand aloof Or is rcquirod of these classes that they follow, at a respectful distance, in tho wake of their more numerous Whig coadjutors, and como when they are called, go when tbey are bidden, or stand in humble readiness to receive nnd obey their commands ! ' Do the facts just staled, nnd which I assume to bo undeniable, warrant the imputations implied in these interrogatories! No ono, I think, can he found lo say so. What. then, is it that has jaundiced tho minds of our Stato Rights menus! may we not, in our turn, ask of them what they expect! what they propose! Is it, that because without them we can effect noth ing, we must, therefore, follow their lead in every thing! Connecting tho nominations they havo already controlled, with the tone of TRUTH'S numbers, which is very much the tone of tho party, there is some appearance that nothing short of a continued control can secure tho co-operation of their' hading and influential men.' We ask them in the name of our country, to examine themselves closely, nnd define for themselves, what their coadjutors should yield to them, to effect a cordial union for Iho rescue of Iho government from the spoilers, and coin nit it to the charge of men, who distinguish he tween principle and interest who look to some thing beyond the 'spoils of victory, or the pre dominance ol a party. 1 his never can bo ef fected by cherishing heart-burnings, by broi d- ing over imaginary slights, by indulging suspi ciuns, or by entering openly or privately the lists of personal rivalry.

Mr Clay's bill fortlio distribution uflbo pro-ceeils of tlio Public Lands nmong the several States in the ratio of their population for a limited term of years, with fifteen per cent, additional to the States in which the lauds lay, was refer red, on its second reading in tho Senate, to the Committee on Public Lands. We have now boforo us a pamphlet copy of an able Report mado by .Mr. Ewi.no, as Chairman of that Committee, on the 27lli nil., on reporting back the bill. In this report the principles of the bill and policy of the measure are ably sustained. The constitutional question how far Congress lias power thus to dispose of the proceeds of the Public Lands, inidor the grants by which the greater portion of them wore ceded to the Unit ed States, separate from tho general revenue of the country in tho mass, has been the chief difficulty which has surrounded the subject. On this branch ol the subject the Report is luminous, and we extract that portion in which tho constitutional question is handled, asfollows: Tho question of constitutional power has occupied the careful and sedulous altcntion of the committee; and tbey here present to the Senate the course of reasoning on that subject which they consider sound and just, and which has led them to the conclusion that Cungruss possesses the power to distribute tho proceeds of the public lands according to the principles of this bill, At the time tho deed of cession from Virginia was mado and accepted, tho Union was held together by the articles of confederation of 1778, which in its 8th article provides," that all charges of war and other expenses that shall be iiicur- Tod for the common defence or general welfare, and allowed by the United States in Congress assembled, shall be do frayed out of Iho common treasury, which shall bo supplied by the several States." The mode of determining the proportion which each of the States shall bear of the public charges, is particularly pointed out, and it is there provided that " the taxes for paying that proportion shall be laid and levied by the authority and direction of tho several States." To this state of things, existing at tho time of the delivery of the Virginia deed of cession, its provisions must ncccssarilr apply. It was to a confederacy of independent States, who kept up a common treasury out of contributions from each of its several members, according to a determinate regulation, that this deed was made, and after making certain reservations, specially set furth, it declares tho trust in tho following distinct and unequivocal terms: "That all the lands within the territory so ceded to tho United States, and not reserved for or appropriated to any of the before-mentioned purposes, or disposed of in bounties to the ofliccrs and soldiers of the American army, shall be considered as a common fund for tho use and benefit of such of tho United States as have become or shall become, mem bers of tho confederation, Virginia inclusive, according to their usual respective proportions in the general chargo and expenditures, and ball be faithfully and bona fldo disposed of for that purpose, and for no other use or purpose whatsoever." If, then, we had still continued, down to the present time, a confederation of States, bound together by tho articles of 177S, and if, as is now the case, tho public debt were discharged, the public expenses borne by rev enucs from other quarters, and tho public land pouring its millions into tho treasury, what ought Congress, as tho trustee of that common fund, to do with it! It is a trust fund, placed in the hands of Congress "for the. use and benefit nf the several States, and it is to bo disposed of " bona Jute for that purposo, " ami fur no other me or purpose whatsoever." So long as there was a public debt to be paid, this fund was well applied fur the common benefit in tho payment of that debt, as tho debt was a common charge upon all, " according to thoir usual respective proportions in the public expenditures." And so lung as it was necessary for tho support of Government, its application to that purposo was right, for the tame reason; but when this stale of things has ceased, when tho proceeds of tho public lands has the constitutional power to in alto the proposed distribution, but it is a duty enjoined on them by a contract which is recognized and adopted by the constitution. As to the land lying within the bounds of the original purchaso of Louisiana and Florida, our right so to apply it rests upon loss satisfactory grounds. Wo have no compact concerning it; no constitutional provision, or any agreement recognized by tho constitution, which expressly authorized the purchase of this additional territory, or which places the land so purchased in the same situation with that which was originally transferred to Congress by the States. Hut the right to acquire the additional territory is no longer an open question. It has been settled, and by virtue of its adjustment, we have already received into the Union two States, and the prosperity of tho whole country has been thereby creally enhanced. It would seem, that when a largo extent of territory was added to that which heretofore belonged to the United Slates, it uiisrht tu be subiccted to tho same constitu tional and Icrral principles which governed in the disposition and management of the lands which we held at the time of tho formation of the constitution. It has been so, strictly, in all things, so far as it related to jurisdiction: it would seem just and reasonable that it should be so as to soil also. Hut in every estimate which has been as yet presented of tho costs and the proceeds of the public lands, whether by tho Secretary of the Treasury or by committees of Congress, the money paid for Louisiana and Florida has been charged to this fund, and it continues to be so down to the last report of the Secretary -of the Treasury, of the Hth of December, lt!". If this bo correct, if the public lands have been mado the fund out of which this large purchase has been paid, it is in truth but a conversion of the receipts lor land into other lands, which would, as a necessary consetiucucc, follow the same law of distribution which applied to the original subject out ol which the payments were made. The fact that other great and important advantages were derived to the Union from the purchase of these two territories, docs not at all weaken the force of the argument, but leaves it in this particular instance, precisely as it would have stood if there had been a purchase of land merely out of the funds arising from the sales of lands; and by the well-known principles of equi ty, tho trust attends the fund, whensoever invested . Your committee havo not taken into consideration the question whether Congress have power, under the Constitution, to distribute a portion of the general revenue among the several States, but have chosen to rest tho measure proposed by this hill on its own special grounds. From the Cincinnati Daily Gazette, Feb. 5. r ARTIES IN OHIO. A writer under the signature! of TRUTH, in the Ohio Stato Journal, has been discussing po litical and party topics, in a series ol numbers. Number five appeared in that paper of February 2d. We make the following extract: ' Now, it is confidently believed, that these two parties constitute a majority of tho froo and independent electors of the Stale, ami that by their active co-operation upon any candidate affording tho probability of a successful competition with tho Baltimore nominee before the peo ple of the Slates, that gentleman would be dis appointed of tho electoral voles of Ohio. And yet, slrango as it would appear to an impartial and disinterested observer, this desirable union seems at this moment almost impracticable. 1 he btato Kighls parly arc a small minority ol this powerful opposition and although tbey havo furnished indubitable evidence that they act under tho highest sense of patriotism and under the solemn convictions of duty, tbey seein to bo equally contemned both by big and lory leaders. the writer docs not believe that the same sentiment exists with tho great body of citizens composing those parties, and he persuades himself that the time is at hand when the truth will be made manifest. The proscriptive spirit which certain leading and influential men cherish towards the members of this small party, was recently developed in a manner and under circumstances which would have suffused with a blush the face of Mr. Van Huron himself, when, upon a lato occasion many distinguished politicians and others, had assembled at Columbus, and intelligence was received of Presidential nomination made by the Anti-masons of Pennsylvania and the Whig members of the Virginia Legislature, a printed advertisement summoned a meeting ol 'all per suns opposed to tho llalliinorc nominations,' oVc A very worthy and talented gentleman, now a bold and prominent 'opponent' of the Haltunore nominees, hut whose mislortiino it was to ic (ormcrly associated with a decided majority of his fellow-citizens in the support of ticncral Jackson against Mr. Adams, sought to participate in tho deliberations nf the meeting. He was plainly told by gentlemen, that his opin ions and advice were not acceptable there (the writer does not profess to quote words hut senti ments cxnressedl that he was not of thorn are no longer necessary for cither of theso pur-1 thev wanted the council of friends not enemies. poses, what is it the duty nf the trustee to do with To the honor of the citizen present, however. it, according to the letter and spu n ol the uecil i be it known that this most inhospitable rcccp of trust! And what, wero it a caso between individuals, would a court of equity compel him to do! Tho answer is plain and obvious. Ho tion of a fellow-laborer, was signally rebuked by the meeting, and so sensible of tho reproof was at least one gentleman, that Ins bitter coin among those who havo one great common object in view. But if theso 'offences must come,' it is but fair that what was dune should bo stated in its different aspects, if it indeed have more than one. Of the public meeting here referred to, and of its occurrences, a good deal has been said, and verv little has been either justly or wisely said. Therefore the subjoined narration is given. the Legislature had been two weeks in ses sion, the federal uourt bad sat a week. A great number of persons wero in attendance. The party opposed to Mr. Van Uurcn had held no consultations, had mado no cll'ort to approach and understand each other. On tho contrary, a shy, suspicions, non-committal feeling prevailed. This was deemed, by some, altogether adverso to making a common cause, in a common object. Forlhe concourse then collected at Columbus to separate without any move toward co-operation, was considered unpropitious for any subsequent united elfurt. Tho intelligence that Gen. Harrison had been nominated by two conventions in Pennsylvania, bad been receiv ed. Seven orcight individuals accidentally col lected together, entered into conversation on the prospect befuro thcin. Tho result was a conclusion that some movement should he made. Those present concurred in the opinion, that the '-'2d of February convention was not a well advised proposition. Tbey also concurred in opinion, that it was the true policy of the whole opposition to concentrate upon lien. Harrison Further, they agreed that it was advisahlo to call a public meeting for the purposo of testing the dispositions entertained by their fellow-cili zens, as to what should be dune lo present nn opportunity to show hands, and interchange opinions. Thus the meeting originated thus it was called. Those who called it thought proper to prepare and submit a project of operations. This was drawn up, and three or four copies mado and circulated next day, upon the heels of the notice. It proposed sanctioning the nomination of Harrison, dispensing with the U'-iti convention, recommending meetings in each congressional district to select a candidate for elector, so as to form an cntiro ticket; and expressing an opinion favorable to nominating General Joseph Vance a candidato for Governor.Upon tho organization of the meeting, the Cist proposition submitted, was an approval of the nomination of Harrison. It was instantly followed, first by one, and again by a second amendment, both of a tendency to embarrass the single question originally proposed. Iho sec ond proposed amendment gave the go-by to Har rison altogether, then an cllort was made by myself, to prevail on the meeting to meet and openly decide upon Harrison's nomination, and reserve the question ol the i'.'d convention, not then before the meeting, to ho decided upon when it came up. The discussion, however, proceeded as if the convention, and not tho approval of Harrison's nomination, was the subject befure the meeting. In this stage, a gentleman took the lloor, lung and most notoriously a Jacksonite Without a word of indication that he was op posed to .Mr. Van Huron, he commenced i speech, the first sentence of which was in the usual terms with which Iho Jackson politicians had opposed the parly then assembled the reproach of 'lawyer caucus, 'lawyer caucus junto,' &c. Applause directly followed. Such a inodo of argument was not ono that wo had been accustomed tu hear among ourselves. I mado tho inquiry, was the gentleman opposed to Mr. Van Hurou! It was, under these circumstances, a natural inquiry fur ino to make. When answered in the affirmative, not another word was said. Ho proceeded without interruption, except by applauses, to the end of his speech; which was, throughout, an invective against those whom he had formerly opposed, ami with whom now, for tho first lime to my knowledge, ho came to actio concert, the inevitable consequence was, nn slight degree of irritation among those who called the meeting, vory freely expressed by myself, as I am accustomed to do, when I find a fair, huncst, open handed public effurt, met by evasions of direct action, and resorts to halfway doings and tcin pori.iug procrastinations. From Hie some, Tub. G. The writlcr of TRUTH asserts that ' certain leailing and influential men' uf the old Clay and Adams parties 'cherish a proscriitiee spirit towards the members' of Iho Siato Uigbls parlv. that were once Jacksouians. Tho incident ol the Columbus meeting is introduced as proof of this. I trust the explanation given yesterday will bo satisfactory tu show that the premises du not support tho conclusion. It was nut in an unkind feeling to Stato Rights men, or to the individual who addressed the meeting, that exception was taken; it was to tho mailer of the address ilsolf, after the sneaker's opposition lo Mr. Van Huren was declared. The tone of that address was a good deal identical wilh that nf Iho numbers of TRUTH, and implied throughout, the allegation, that ' certain leading and in- Jlucntial men' had views and designs uf their own, and, lor that reason, they were hostllo towards tho Slalo Rights men. This is but assumption: the fact uf adopting it is unfavorable to a cordail union with those of whom it is entertained.

This, as be- this occasion, to which the writer may allude tween individuals, would he a plain case, and j hereafter. Now, what do these gentlemen ox-jour coinniilloe cannot perceive how it is varied ; pect! Do they not enst beyond themselves in when applied between Stales and Nations, If, ' their opinions,' and exhibit a want of discretion then, we had remained, as wo wore, members of 'not proper to their age! ' Do they not know the old confederation: if the constitution had not intervened, to change, in anywise, the relations of tho Statos to each other, or to the whole, it would havo been not only lie right, but the duty of Congress, pursuant to tho spirit of that deed of cession, tu have distributed among ibe several States tho proceeds of the sales of the lands contained within the bounds of that grant. The delivery and acceptance of this deed amounted to a contract, and tho above is, according to tho opinion of your committee, tho just construction of that contract. Dot tho rights and duties of tho United Stales as a contracting party, are not at all changed by the adoption of tho constitution. Tho 1st section of tho Oth article of that instrument provides " that all dobts contracted, and engage ments ontorcd into, boforo tho adoption of this constitution, shall be as valid against tho United States under this constitution as under the confederation;" so that our rights, and our duties, with regard to this trust, aro tho same precisely that they would havo been under (he old confederation. All that has been said relative lo tho deed of cession from Virginia, applios equally to the cessions from tho other States, except Georgia, whose docd hears date after the adop tion of the Federal constitution; but, with this exception, it is in tenor and spirit tho same with the deed above considered. Your committee aro hence led to tho conclu lion, that with respect lo tho proceeds of all the cation of 'leading and influential men' generally, tho individuals pointed at, as acting in the Columbus meeting, caunot bo mistaken. Henry Brush, Win. Stanbury, John C. Wright, Charles Fox, Charles Hammond, aro necessarily included. Every ono of theso gave an unqualified, an energolic support to Gen. Findlay. Every one was active in promoting union at all points oetwecn the powerful opposition, and the 'small minority of State Rights men. The editor of the Gazette received, in other States, both he-fore and after the election, no little opprobrium for his active agency in supporting the nomina tion ol ijcn. l' indlav. With what lustice, then. can it bo assumed that any of the persons named, from any consideration, are disposed to flout at me co-operation of their fellow citizens of the State Rights party, unless it can be shown thai since 1834 they havo changed their course! Let us look further: in 18U4. tho joint efforts of tho two parties succeeded in electing a majority of tho Legislature. Was the Stato Rights party overlooked or disregarded! This cannot bo maintained. A 'leading and influential' member of that party was chosen Cleric of the Senate. Moro than this: tho ' small minority' Stale Rights party had soloctcd their candidate for tho Presidency of the United States, for whom t,ey asked tho co-operation and support of the 'powerful opposition.' Every member of mc Legislature ol tho opposition parlv joined in recommending the support of tho candidate of incir otato nights friends. .Most of the ' leading and influential men' united in the recommen dation. Tho Editor of tho Gazette was active in olTecting it, suggested tho plan, nnd draft ed Hie address in which it was embodied. What moro could bo required! Wero they to blame that tho nomination was not cflcclual v second ed in other States! Tho writor of TRUTH asks: ' Now, what do theso fnnllnmnn pvnoctl Do they not ' cast beyond themselves in their opinions,' and exhibit want of discretion ' not proper to (heir ago ! ' Do they not know tnai without tho aid of Iho secodinir Jackson ians, they have no possible just expectations of carrying unio against .Mr. Van Huron! or can they think to gain their object by trampling upon ino mmo ltiglils men, and old Jackson men, as they hurry, pell mcll. on their march And is it for this, that when these men would come up to their help, they thus scorn their as sistanco, and bid them stand aloof Or is rcquirod of these classes that they follow, at a respectful distance, in tho wake of their more numerous Whig coadjutors, and como when they are called, go when tbey are bidden, or stand in humble readiness to receive nnd obey their commands ! ' Do the facts just staled, nnd which I assume to bo undeniable, warrant the imputations implied in these interrogatories! No ono, I think, can he found lo say so. What. then, is it that has jaundiced tho minds of our Stato Rights menus! may we not, in our turn, ask of them what they expect! what they propose! Is it, that because without them we can effect noth ing, we must, therefore, follow their lead in every thing! Connecting tho nominations they havo already controlled, with the tone of TRUTH'S numbers, which is very much the tone of tho party, there is some appearance that nothing short of a continued control can secure tho co-operation of their' hading and influential men.' We ask them in the name of our country, to examine themselves closely, nnd define for themselves, what their coadjutors should yield to them, to effect a cordial union for Iho rescue of Iho government from the spoilers, and coin nit it to the charge of men, who distinguish he tween principle and interest who look to some thing beyond the 'spoils of victory, or the pre dominance ol a party. 1 his never can bo ef fected by cherishing heart-burnings, by broi d- ing over imaginary slights, by indulging suspi ciuns, or by entering openly or privately the lists of personal rivalry.
